The Gimp

Of course this blog wouldn't be complete if i don't make a little tribute to what i consider to be the most special jewel in the Open Source crown. The Gimp (short form of 'GNU Image Manipulation Program') is a freely distributed piece of software for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring.It works on many operating systems, in many languages. In the official GIMP web site you'll find information about downloading, installing, using, and enhancing this fantastic graphic suite. This site also serves as a distribution point for the latest releases.What? you're still reading this? go check it out!!!!

Welcome!

The Internet has changed the way we work, live and communicate. The 'Snail mail' became obsolete and it's been replaced by e-mail, in a matter of seconds you can send text, images and sound to anyone, no matter if it's your neighbour next door or a far friendship sitting on the other side of the planet, the Internet makes it possible with incredible speed and efficiency.

Nowadays anybody is capable of having a presence on the internet, from the big enterprise's homepage and intranet having hundreds of terabytes of information spread across continents to the small business in the middle of nowhere to the individual who owns and writes on his blog on a regular basis and just wants to tell the world 'here i am'.

I am one of those individuals, and this is my blog/webpage, whatever you want to name it :-) here i will post thoughts, internet-related topics, info about Linux and open source, distro testing, links to other sites and a bit of my personal life.

I hope you enjoy your visit, find some useful information and please leave a comment, will be very appreciated.
